WEN Inverter size for refrigerator?

All,

Does anyone have any experience with the WEN inverters running a larger LG refrigerator? I have a fairly new side by side LG fridge (LSXS26386D) that says it needs 115v @ 3.5a. I contacted LG, and they said it needs 500-600watts, and another person from LG said 2400 watts - not very consistent or helpful.

I am looking for something to run occasionally, during a power outage, so not long term. I found a WEN 56200I (2000w starting, 1600w running) for $378 (w/ military discount from Lowe's) and a WEN 56225I (2250w starting, 1800w running) for $459. I am drawn to these because of the ratings and reviews, and are quiet (51 dB & 53 dB).

Thoughts or comments?

Thanks!
